Chords

I just look around me as I post(verb) this post(noun).
Coffee mug, water bottle, cellphone, penstand, a magazine flapping in air, a greeting card from my friend. No sign of humans in the vicinity of my mind. Now, is that the reason why I post to this blog. Had a friend called now or if I had seen a friend online would I be writing this?
Are all the events in this world interconnected. Are there anythings which can be termed as mutually exclusive events?
I got a bicycle from my dad and I am working in a multinational company. Two events, spread across two different period of time, seemingly unconnected and exclusive of each other. But I find a mild chord running through these events. So mild is the chord that it needs absolute solitude and a mug of irish black coffee to discover the connection.
Yesterday was a gloomy day in bangalore. It rained as though it had never rained before. It made me stay in office late. So late that I got bored of rain. Finally it showed some signs of receding and I managed to sneak into the coffee day near my office. I like coffee especially on a rainy day.
Alone to coffee day.. Sounds crazy..? Coffee shops are not meant only for lovers, I know a friend who goes to coffee day alone like me. Infact I found more little chords criss-crossing my past. All that happened yesterday. The 'bicycle - multinational company chord' is only one thing which I am quoting here. There are millions which I discovered yesterday itself. I plan my next coffee day session (of course alone!!) for I would be lost in discoveries otherwise.
Physics means fascination to me now. It is a world where nature,philosophy and logics merge into one. It is a ecsastic experience to live in such a beautiful world.
I developed this love towards physics during class XI. The one who`s responsible for showing the world of science to me was my physics tuition teacher.
So deep was my love towards physics that I started collecting MIR publication books (of erstwhile soviet union) which explained concepts of physics in the easiest possible way.
I developed love towards astrophysics. I started reading more books regarding that. At times I was cautioned to come to the academic routine.
It is only natural that I took mechanical engineering. I thought it would enhance my love towards physics. Then because of some more chords ( really thick ones this time), I developed love towards automobiles. Because of that I read everything which carried the picture of car with it. I still count this transition as one of the decisive things in my life.
Finally I ended up in multinational company which is the heart of automotive industry! I find love (towards physics, of course!) behind all these events. Thin chord?
So.. Wondering where does the bicycle come into picture here?
I told my dad that I will go for tuitions for my class XI only if he gets me a bicycle.
